On May 20, 2016, the Board of Directors of Cellular Biomedicine Group, Inc. (the “Company”) scheduled its 2016 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2016 Annual Meeting”) for September 9, 2016, which date is more than 30 days from the anniversary date of the Company’s 2015 annual meeting of stockholders.
 
The Company has set a deadline of June 25, 2016 for the receipt of stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), for inclusion in the Company’s proxy materials for the 2016 Annual Meeting, which date the Company has determined to be a reasonable time before it expects to begin to print and sent its proxy materials. In order to be considered timely, any such proposal must be received by the Company at its principal executive offices at 19925 Stevens Creek Blvd., Suite 100, Cupertino, CA 95014, and addressed to the attention of the corporate secretary, no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on June 25, 2016. Any such proposal must also meet the requirements set forth in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission in order to be eligible for inclusion in the proxy materials for the 2016 Annual Meeting.
 
In addition, in accordance with the Company’s bylaws (the “Bylaws”), stockholders who intend to submit a proposal regarding a director nomination at the 2016 Annual Meeting must ensure that notice of any such proposal (including certain additional information specified in the Bylaws) is received by the corporate secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices at 19925 Stevens Creek Blvd., Suite 100, Cupertino, CA 95014, and addressed to the attention of the Corporate Secretary no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on June 25, 2016. This deadline will also apply in determining whether notice is timely for purposes of exercising discretionary voting authority with respect to proxies for purposes of Rule 14a- 4(c) under the Exchange Act.
